Abstract
A detailed derivation of the Lattice Boltzmann (LB) scheme for relativistic fluids recently proposed in Ref. [1], is presented. The method is numerically validated and applied to the case of two quite different relativistic fluid dynamic problems, namely shock-wave propagation in quark-gluon plasmas and the impact of a supernova blast-wave on massive interstellar clouds. Close to second order convergence with the grid resolution, as well as linear dependence of computational time on the number of grid points and time-steps, are reported.
